Bintang - Campbell / Sunnyvale - Weekday ~6 PM/Early Night Activity?

Hey, I was just wondering what the activity level (# of players / skill level) at Bintang Campbell or Sunnyvale around 6 PM or early night (before 8 PM) is?

Empty courts? Do most players already have set groups they play with?

I'm an intermediate player (college student) who is looking to start playing @ Bintang in mid-July. I was thinking of going weekdays after work (~6 PM), but was wondering if it'd be easy to find people at that time looking to play doubles with someone who is going to Bintang for their first time. I assume on weekdays there would be more people after 8 PM?

Also, I was just wondering what the court usage policy is. I assume if the courts are all in use they'd only be used for games, but if there are empty courts, could two people (neither coaches) use half a court to practice/drill by themselves?

for Campbell, the best days for upper intermediate/advance group is definitely Mon/Wed. there are lots of people to play against in the challenge court, but only in challenge courts. just be thick skin and ask to find someone to play with if you don't have a partner. the good thing about Campbell is that the crowd there are usually pretty friendly and will play with anyone. i never have problem finding someone to play with when i am there.

BBC crowd tend to be a bit cliquey and only play with their own friends.

i go there quite regularly on either M/T/W/Th, but i am the late crowd arriving after 8+pm.
